Tig welding gas

Hiya all,

I've found a company that will sell me a pure argon gas cylinder for tig welding, actually they would sell me two different sizes. So I have three questions.

1) How big is a 10 litre 200bar cylinder? How long would this last?

2) Would a 50 litre cylinder be a better option bearing mind it'd be twice the price and more than I was expecting to pay?

3) does anyone know where in Dorset/west hampshire I could get in refilled?

Ive recently seen a professional safety notice, reporting on an incident in the states where a 6' cylinder did the very same, but on a roof of a building. The trajectory was like an artillery shell but fortunately, noone was injured or killed.
